Questions  

Statement-1: The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor increased, when a metallic slab is introduced between plates of a capacitor.
Statement-2: The electric field inside metallic slab does not reduce to zero.

a
Statement-1 is true, is a statement-2 is true; statement-2 correct explanation for statement-1.
b
Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true, statement-2 is not a correct explanation for statement-1.
c
Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is false.
d
Statement-1 is false, statement-2 is true.

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Electric field inside the conductor is zero and potential decreases between the plates hence capacitance increases.
